with Lana Cowell

The Course: Join me as we explore the beautiful female Yellow-Rumped warbler. In this class we will spend 2 1/2 days carving, burningand texturing our bird and 2 1/2 days painting. Upon registration I willsend you out a blank, the casting and instructions on how to rough outthe bird. When you come to the class we will explore different feathergroups and how to texture each feather group. My painting style is verymuch keyed into how the piece is textured and the surface on which toput the paint. We will spend 2 1/2 days painting the bird. We will deal with mixingpaints, the type of paint that I use, and the different brushstrokes toachieve different results. A firm believer in the premise carve to paint, Lana Cowell has achievedsuccess at several carving shows across western Canada.

Materials Fee: $40.00 includes a blank, a casting, instructions andeyes, along with a collection of research photographs. 

The Instructor: A lifelong Saskatchewan resident, Lana Cowell has wonseveral awards across Canada for her carvings.  Her work has beenpraised for her attention to detail, the texture and surfaces on hercarvings, and an almost lifelike softness she achieves with her paintingtechnique. “I am honoured and delighted to be invited to lead a class at Shekinah. I believe that the learning experience there is compounded by theattitude, enthusiasm, inspiration and creativity each student brings withhim/her.  We learn from each other.  We laugh together.   My goal for this class is not limited to carving and painting a yellow-rumped warbler.  It is my wish to give you insight into my thought processas we work together.  The path to Art requires an engine.  Technicalinformation, a set of skills, patience, work ethic, motivation andconfidence are all components of that engine.  I will provide you withtechnical information and show you how and where I harvest it.  I willshow you the techniques I use and the skills I nurture, from whichconfidence can take root.  With confidence, patience is not hard to find.Work ethic and motivation are critical components of this engine.  Theseyou must bring with you, and find within yourself.  If I can show you howto build this engine through this project, then I will have succeeded notin teaching you to carve and paint, but in putting you on the path to Art,and through that, the joy of your own creative experience.”
